    Modi declared victory over COVID 3 months back, now people don’t have beds, oxygen and not enough healthcare staff to manage . Even crematorium is unable to handle but entire government was out to get Bengal, shameless govt. in UP arresting anyone who raises SOS , do you really care for people’s live ? Hope people realize that this government is incompetent and just running PR , but when they do it’s disastrous like demonetization, gst and now this . Before getting on power make promise that India will change in 100 days , dollar will 40, 15 lacs and all jumps. But when you can’t deliver, then blame it on Muslims, Nehru/Gandhi, Pakistan to hide their incompetency and to make people believe all problems are due to Muslims , Gandhis & Pakistan...

    No political party had any solutions for this. Do you see any non BJP states making progress with reduction in number of cases. The deths are high in Karnataka becuase majority of cases have occurred in Bengaluru where the patients died due to shortage. Stop playing blame game and see how much you can help those affected.

    @Sam, Mumbai - How can non-BJP states make any progress against Corona when the Centre is incompetent and wastes time, money and energy on statues, rituals, gatherings and elections ?

    Feel very sad to see the increase in number in deaths. 346 death in a day shows the very bad management by the govt. Look at Kerala, the positive cases are always high from last one year, but the death rate is very low. They are handling the situation with utmost care. Karnataka govt should work hard to reduce the death rate & save the poor lives.
